Objective: Soil salinity is one of the major worldwide environmental constraints affecting agricultural production in arid and semiarid regions. Lack of proper management of water and soil resources lead to increase soil salinity and reduce soil fertility. On the other hand, it seems simple and cheap method of measuring soil salinity is necessary. The aim of this study was to determine the rela...

background: today, in many countries, wastewater treatment plants effluent is an important part of the renewable water resources. in this case, the effluent quality standards are developed and used is important. the aim of this study was to investigate the potential use of wastewater plants effluent restricted irrigation. methods: in this descriptive - analytical study, samples was collected fr...

Groundwater is one of the most important water resources especially for irrigation in the east of Iran. So, it is important to note its water quality variation for deciding to manage it. To this end, the study were done to zone Birjand plain located at latitude between 32˚ 30’-33˚ 00’ N and longitude between 58˚ 45’-59˚ 41’ E. In order to achieve this goal, the required layers, Sodium adsorptio...

studies by the us salinity laboratory, using gapon rule, led to the value of 0.01475 (mmol l-1)-0.5for the modified gapon selectivity coefficient (k'g). nevertheless, the results of subsequent research reveled that k'g isn’t constant and could take on a wide range of values depending on soil properties. the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between exchangeable sodiu...

the study was carried out to evaluate the effects of soil application of humic acid and calciumon morpho-physiological traits and na+, mg2+, ca2+ uptake of pistachio seedling (akbari) grown under salt stress.  a completely randomized design was used with four replications in greenhouse conditions. the experimental treatment consisted of four levels of humic acid (bis humic) (0, 4, 8 and 12 gr k...

Land application of coalbed natural gas (CBNG) co-produced water is a popular management option within northwestern Powder River Basin (PRB) of Wyoming. This study evaluated the impacts of land application of CBNG waters on soil chemical properties at five sites. Soil samples were collected from different depths (0-5, 5-15, 15-30, 30-60, 60-90, and 90-120 cm) from sites that were irrigated with...

this study was designed to investigate the effects of different tillage systems on some parameters such as soil salinity (ph, ec, sar), soil density and nutrients in a nested experimental design with three treatments (no tillage, reduced tillage and conventional tillage) and three replications. chenaran city fields were selected as the case study areas. result of the statistical analysis indica...
